What do you get when you cross Ray Charles and the Beach Boys?

Well, see for yourself in this lost gem of a performance: it's Ray himself playing piano with Brian Wilson and the late Carl Wilson and the rest of the Boys singing their classic harmony on a song ("Sail On Sailor") Brian wrote with Ray in mind. This is from the 1986 Beach Boys 25th Anniversary TV special in Hawaii. The blend is miraculous; beautiful; soulful; sublime; ingenious; vibrant... I can't think of enough superlatives. I just wish this had been recorded for an album -- and that Dennis Wilson was with them.
